    That's the quickest way to kill a stream link

    I paid for it :cool:

    55 games for 15 bucks. That's about two combo meals from Whataburger.

    Enjoy your low quality feeds

    This is not on NBATV; according to TVGuide, they are showing crap such as WNBA and playoff replays.

    I paid. It's better than paying 100+ a month for cable when there's never anything on. At least I know this is stuff I want to watch. Call me an idiot or dumb, but I'd rather watch the games in decent quality than watch that justin.tv crap. 15 bucks well spent in my opinion.

    I dont know about justin. It got super annoying the 2nd half of the season with
    1) 1 or 2 guys covering rockets games compared to a dozen lakers games
    2) blank streams
    3) annoying chats on the good streams

    I agree. And the horrible stream quality made me turn to using sopcast.

    Signed up. Doesn't seem like a rip-off to me at all. 55 games for $15?

    Some of you guys are cheap.

    It's not the amount you have to pay, it's the fact that I am virtually going to end up paying for pickup games!

    I knew some posters were going to go ahead and pay for it, but I didn't think anyone would admit it in this thread.

    i am not sure if this is always the case since i've always gone on the second weekend but at least the first weekend games are all in cox pavillion (the smaller gym) somewhere mid week they start playing games in both thomas and mack center and cox pavillion.

    i guess one good thing is that i wont miss any of the games or have to choose between watching games (last year went to the rockets game when the bucks/wolves game was going on missed out on Love/Mbah a Moute matchup)


    hopefully it wont be too crowded because of that, but usually its not that crowded there

    man I was looking forward to watching the games (in good quality at least). Do they even have commentators at the games they show online? They only had the announcers for the games on nba tv in previous years. and also they haven't released any schedule for nba tv games either, so this is pretty disappointing.

    Thank you!

    But I guess it's their right. Ah well, I should've gone - I've never been to Vegas - it's not my kind of town, but I guess it'd be nice to say I went. lol. Maybe next year.
